To launch the newest pick-up truck for the iconic Fiat brand, Leo Burnett Tailor Made, Sao Paulo, Brazil, crafted an integrated campaign, “The Legend,” starring The King of Rock and Roll and the New Fiat Strada.
The spot follows Elvis Presley as he takes the New Fiat Strada for a spin–complete with Elvis impersonators, several samurais and a drive through the desert. During the exciting adventure, viewers get a closer look at the car’s sleek design, top-notch interior space, advanced traction system and other unique features.
To fully replicate The King’s mannerisms and appearance, the team recruited one of the best doubles, Dean Z from Missouri. The team then replaced his face with a fully CGI likeness based on real scenes captured from Elvis’ shows and film from 1968.
Released this month in Brazil, the spot runs until August.
